Just back from a fab weekend break in London.This is the third time we have stayed at the St Giles, and we would never now book any other hotel. The location is prime - just next to Tottenham court Road, within easy access of the subway and central for everywhere we wanted to visit. The staff are polite, courteous, and nothing is a bother. As usual, our room was clean warm and well equipped ......from fridge to hair dryer.......well done St Giles yet again.

Room Tip: Love the delux room.......separate sitting area

Ask Debbie K about St Giles London - St Giles Classic Hotel

This review is the subjective opinion of a TripAdvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.

This is a very large hotel with 670 rooms, but only 4 elevators to transport all the guests up & down 12 floors. Waiting time for the lifts can, during weekends, be as much as 10 minutes. Not to mention waiting in line to get into the breakfast restaurant (which resembles a school cafeteria), then wait in another looong line to get the actual breakfast. If you eat what is offered, you will at least not leave hungry.

It’s officially 3* rated, but is (with Scandinavian standards) a tourist class hotel. Due to the insufficiency of lifts and the presence of stairs, the hotel is not suitable for wheelchairs and disabled people.

The staff is somewhat uninspired, but not unfriendly.

We stayed in a reasonably sized twin room on the 1st floor for 4 nights. The bathroom was good and appeared to be newly refurbished. The room itself a bit "tired" with a stained wall-to-wall carpet. Luckily the room faced one of the quieter streets, so we were not disturbed by noise from the main street (Tottenham Court Rd).

You have to pay for WiFi, both in the room and in public areas. (Nicholson's pub, The Tottenham, corner Oxford St/Tottenham Court Rd, have free WiFi).

The advantages with this hotel are the location near Oxford Street and the room prices. But you get what you pay for…

If you want some nice restaurants, visit nearby Charlotte St.

Room Tip: Avoid rooms on 11 and 12th floor as they are not refurbished (according to receptionist)

Nobody is going to rave about this hotel, but apart from some issues it would be difficult to slate it either. The best thing is the location in Bloomsbury, walkable to Oxford Street, British Museum (and Museum Tavern - top tip for real ale and good wine). If you get a good deal book it! Breakfast is very ordinary and queues can be long to get served so allow for this.Check in was friendly as was the concierge. Well designed in that rooms are at an angle and don't overlook each other, but an awful modern concrete exterior. This is a big city hotel with lots of rooms so don't expect seclusion and special treatment.

Room Tip: They are all quite similar really!

Ask BladeWestMidlands about St Giles London - St Giles Classic Hotel

This review is the subjective opinion of a TripAdvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.

Hotel just situated off Oxford Street, ideal for shopping and landmarks of London. Stayed in double room for two nights, slept well both nights, beds are rather hard to sleep on though. Room was small and clean. Stayed on first floor, room only basis, however plenty of eating places near by. Price reasonable. For the amount of staff on the check in/reception area, they could have took more time being friendly both at check in/out time. They were efficient but weren't welcoming. If visit London again, would use a different hotel even if had to pay that bit extra.

Every year I visit this hotel with my mum and we love it, this year due to illness my mum uses a wheel chair. The staff and hotel it's self was fine, unfortunately this could not be said about the lifts ever time we wanted to leave the room we could never get in the lifts every time I wanted to take my mum out of the hotel or back to the room we would have to wait 20+ mins to get a lift , then to top it of we got trapped in it for over 20 mins . Out of 4 lifts only 1 or 2 were working . Very stressful for a disabled person and the person supporting them .

Ask charles w about St Giles London - St Giles Classic Hotel

This review is the subjective opinion of a TripAdvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.

My husband and I had an very enjoyable stay at st.Giles Hotel - nice hotel - food excellent.Unfortunately after checking out on the 14th I realized I had left my engagement ring in the room, and at around 12 p.m. phoned hotel and told them where I had left it. About 12.45 they returned my call to say the room had been cleaned and there was no sign of the ring! Went back to the hotel and spoke to the duty manager who logged the incident for the security manager to read on the following Monday. We found the manager to be very helpful and he said the incident would be looked into - but to be honest I don't hold any hope of seeing the ring again. Would suggest future guests be extra vigilant - still very upset! !
